At lunch yesterday we talked about the year coming to an end in a matter of days. Everyone on the table remembered they made a resolution but could not remember any new year resolution they had made. That was very interesting.
We all started talking about next year, everyone said oh it will surely be different, I wondered how everyone forgot! some were confused they were no longer sure. I asked if they knew why they couldn’t remember, no one had an answer. I asked, Could it be because the resolutions were centered around self? If those resolutions were about helping others, making a change for good in the life of others do you think it will be forgotten after 10months?
2019 will soon be here, look around you, include helping somebody at least one person through mentoring, teaching, encouraging, modeling your life skills.
You can’t forget a person but you can forget all about your diet plans for the year.
One way every developer can prepare for 2020 is to invest in someone in 2019. Our TECH community will grow. More Veterans, girls/women, kids, including retirees will be coming to Tech. It is an industry that gives everyone an option.
